You are in :. AMT - Atlantic Meridional Transect - Oceanographic research cruise. Benefits of the AMT Programme. Over the past two decades there have been 24 annual research cruises as part of the AMT programme. These in turn have hosted over 220 scientists (from more than 60 research institutes in 18 countries), produced over 200 significant scientific papers and contributed to 75 PhD studies. The benefits of AMT are far-reaching and of high impact to oceanographic research as a whole. Given to students...

Pride and...Plankton!: My Science
http://raffles79.blogspot.com/p/my-science.html
About things like plankton, science and general randomness. I believe that there are things that if you let go once you never see again. not just items, but people and memories too. (And.My memory is particularly bad! The title of my PhD is " Effect of temperature and food quality on zooplankton metabolic rates". At present I am interested in biochemistry, zooplankton ecology and the effects of food sources and environmental variables on zooplankton physiological processes. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

You are in :. AMT - Atlantic Meridional Transect - Oceanographic research cruise. The annual AMT voyage undertakes biological, chemical and physical oceanographic research in the Atlantic Ocean. The transect crosses several ecosystems from sub-polar to tropical, euphotic shelf seas to oligotrophic mid-ocean gyres. AMT samples over a 100° latitude, including the rarely visited South Atlantic Gyre. Consistent observations are made on the biogeochemical properties of plankton ecosystems. AMT is a very valua...
